Yeah, i have played that game before. "just a few more won't hurt". I don't enjoy putting leaf springs in if i don't have too!!!! I had 2900 pounds of washed sand in there once. Found out that was TOO much for the old springs...

When I was a boy, Daddy would load the old 69 swb/step with cattle bars on the back with oak firewood until the overload bumpers were on the axles. Pulled it home in second gear with the headlights shining the tree tops!
